This is one of those breads I can't quit eating. The flavor is full bodied and astounding. This is no Wonder Bread! It needs no butter or any other spread to be good. I wish I knew better how to describe flavors!

This bread recipes calls for 6 1/4 cups of flour. I replaced 3 of those cups with whole wheat flour and increased the water by 1/4 cup. I also added 2 T of vital gluten. We prefer whole grains and this change was perfect to our tastes. I didn't have any chives so used only diced onions. (The recipe includes both options.) I grated Cheddar cheese.

The recipe makes two large loaves. I made one long freestanding loaf and two pans of spiral rolls. The rolls were perfect for wrapping up for gifts.

I keep finding more and more to read......I am joining your blog, and have linked to yours on my own, encouraging others to come and read the treasure trove I have found here. I like the bulk cooking...and baking. But I like you, start to get tired at about 1and have to know when to stop. I will continue to read and learn.
